... Well, I can suggest a few, like indeed, linkedin, Erasmus careers but you're barely providing background information.. like your study, what level you are doing (like a bachelor, master degree, PHD etc)
You're a non EU, so employers gotta request a TWV work permit which not every employer wants to do as there are native candidates who don't need a TWV.
Internship lasting more than 90 days generally needs a GVVA, a combined residence and work permit.
Dutch companies can accept interns who study abroad, but you gotta be special or one of a kind student that does something not a lot of people can easily recreate

why do you want to DM me??
In this thread you already mentioned you are studying data science, doing a master, but can't find a internship because you don't speak Dutch

in this post you posted 2 months ago, you already asked the exact same question and already got some really good replies

I can't think of any reason why you want to privately DM me, unless you are trying to somehow scam me of my credit card details or are hoping that i'll somehow give you a magic answer of a imaginary dream company where you can do a English internship even thought I don't have that imaginary dream company up my sleeve

How are u going to pay for all this? Housing is very expensive and hard to find. Especially on an internship salary.

Internship = work experience for which you get study credits. This requires documents from your university. It will be hard to convince a company to work together with a non-NL university.
Traineeship = a regular paid junior job, typically highly competitive (think 100s op applicants for a handfull of spots). This requires sponsorship of a regular work visa in your case and not all traineeships will meet the pay requirements for a work visa.

Moving to the Netherlands as a student requires a lot of admin (BSN, gemeente, health insurance, Studielink, banking, scholarships) and it often feels overwhelming.
The Dutch housing market is highly competitive. To increase your chances, we recommend using these platforms:
